I have been in need of a decent looking knob. I don't like the stock look and have wanted leather or wood but can't seem to find anything nice that isn't costly.

So I had some spare things and thought I could do my own. Well it's harder than I though and the results are not quite what I want but looks ok.

I can fully appreciate the work effort Zach (Vacca Rabite) puts into the 917 knobs. I missed the last run; probably get one on the next.

Another thing was I wanted a knob with a Porsche crest. Anyways here is what I ended up with after rushing the job.

I have one of Zachs and it is a work of art. But still that is pretty good for what you call a rush job.
